Apple Sells Record 4 Million iPhone6 in 24 Hours

Apparently, this iPhone 6 device might be a pretty big
hit. Apple announced on Monday that preorders for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus
have smashed all previous records and totaled 4 million units over just the
first 24 hours alone.

Apple confirmed that demand for the newly launched
4.7-inch iPhone 6 and 5.5-inch 6 Plus ‘exceeds the initial pre-order supply and
while a significant amount will be delivered to customers beginning on Friday
and throughout September, many iPhone pre-orders are scheduled to be delivered
in October.’

On Apple’s U.S. website, the company says that if a
customer orders an iPhone 6 now it will ship it in seven to 10 business days,
but shipments of the 6 Plus will not go out for about three to four weeks.

The phones will go on sale first in
the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Puerto
Rico, Singapore and the United Kingdom starting Sept. 19, and in 22 additional
countries including Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, the Isle of
Man, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway,
Portugal, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan,
Turkey and the United Arab Emirates-beginning on Sept 26.
